"War is inevitable!" Zhang Luan said firmly, his fingers tapping lightly on the table. "I can allow the Beast-Eared Tribe and humans to coexist on equal terms, but what will be the result? The other empires will not allow us to exist!"
When the chiefs of the Beast-Eared Tribe heard this, they looked at each other, not fully understanding the meaning.
They have been enslaved for so long that they have lost their political sensitivity. They are busy trying to survive all day and rarely consider the larger political landscape.
Alexia, who was sitting to Zhang Luan's left, noticed their confusion and quickly stood up to explain, "Everyone knows that the universally recognized law of this world is that the Beast-Eared Tribe must become slaves, to be toyed with and abused by other races at will."
Her voice was clear and powerful, and her long golden hair shone in the sunlight.
As the leader of the Golden Griffin Knights, she once again demonstrated her decisiveness and influence as a leader.
"If a nation like ours emerges as an equal, the other beast-eared tribes will surely flee to our side. This would be tantamount to affecting the interests of the slave owners, nobles, and slave traders of various empires. How could they possibly let us go?"
She glanced around, making sure everyone was listening.
"What's more, we've broken the principles followed by the entire continent, and that's something they absolutely cannot allow! So if you want freedom, you must fight for it!"
After Alexia finished speaking, the eyes of the beast-eared leaders present lit up, and they instantly understood the seriousness of the matter.
Their eyes changed from confusion to determination, from bewilderment to determination.
"Fight for freedom!" Sora from the Red Mane Tribe was the first to stand up and shouted loudly.
Her long red hair fluttered in the air, and her ponytail was raised high, making her look heroic.
"Fight for the next generation!" Michelle of the Ox-Horned Tribe also stood up, her huge breasts shaking up and down with her movements.
Soon, all the Beast Ear leaders stood up and shouted out their determination. Their voices merged into a powerful force that echoed throughout the conference room.
"for freedom!"
“For equality!”
“For our future generations!”
"For all the enslaved fellow beast-eared people!"
Zhang Luan looked at the scene with satisfaction, a smile on his face.
After waiting for the crowd's enthusiasm to subside a bit, he spoke again: "Very well, our first goal is to completely control the current imperial territory. Then, we will establish a new regime, a truly equal regime."
He pressed a button on the desk.
Suddenly, a map was projected onto the wall on one side of the conference table. It looked rather crude and simple. It was a map bought from various merchants and pieced together here and there, showing the entire territory of the empire and the surrounding areas.
Zhang Luan pointed his finger at the map and spoke in a steady and confident voice, "The elves and the human princesses are organizing their forces to counterattack the royal city, so the main force of the lizardmen will definitely gather in the royal city and prepare for a decisive battle. Now is our golden opportunity to recapture other cities."
His gaze swept across every Beast-Eared leader present, and finally landed on Alexia, the strongest among them.
"Alexia will lead a team to take over Yellen City. That's my fiefdom, so there shouldn't be much resistance." He tapped Yellen City's location on the map. "But if the Lizard Nation discovers my intentions, that area will be the most pressured."
Alexia's lips curled up slightly, revealing a confident smile. "Leave it to me. I love a challenge." Her eyes sparkled with excitement.
Zhang Luan nodded with satisfaction, then turned his gaze to another city on the map.
Chapter 319
"Very good, I will go and convince the city of Arcadia and their army to join us."
His finger moved to another position. "Mariana and Sora, take over Vicente City, take over the army there, further liberate the beast-ear slaves, and expand our strength."
Sora immediately straightened her back, her red ponytail swirling excitedly behind her, looking heroic. "Yes, Master!" Her voice was filled with passion and determination. As the leader of the Red Mane Tribe, she was born with the temperament of a warrior.
Mariana seemed a little nervous. She clasped her hands in front of her chest, her voice trembling slightly: "I...I will try my best!"
As a noble girl who had never participated in a battle, this was a huge challenge for her.
But she knew very well that there were a large number of beast-ear slaves in Vicente City who needed to be liberated, and this was a task assigned to her by Zhang Luan, whom she admired. She would definitely do a good job with her influence in Vicente City.
Zhang Luan noticed her nervousness and said gently, "Mariana, you don't need to participate directly in the battle. Your mission is to use your connections and influence in Vicente City to help Sora successfully take over the city. The two of you will definitely accomplish this mission if you work together."
Mariana's tension eased a little after hearing this. She nodded with a grateful smile on her face.
"As for the other cities," Zhang Luan continued, his finger tracing over several small towns on the map, "we need to send a small team to quietly infiltrate them, contact the local beast-ear slaves, and prepare to launch an uprising at the appropriate time."
He looked at Mira, "The Cat-Eared Tribe excels at stealth and reconnaissance, so I'll leave this mission to you."
Mira nodded: "Yes, Master!"
Unlike the other beast-eared people present, Mira is a natural assassin and is already familiar with these tasks.
After arranging all this, Zhang Luan organized the tribal chiefs to learn how to use modern firearms, artillery, how to drive, etc., which amazed everyone.
The determination to fight to the death in his eyes was gradually replaced by the confidence of victory.
Chapter 326 Return to Arcadia City
After the meeting, Zhang Luan and the leaders of various tribes quickly planned their next itinerary.
The whole city seemed to be injected with new vitality and soon became lively.
Thousands of beast-eared girls were engaged in intensive combat training, and their busy figures could be seen everywhere on the streets and training grounds.
This modern city is equipped with advanced training facilities. Although the training methods seem a bit unconventional for this world of swords and magic, the intensity is not too great.
Compared to the brutal training in the other world where lives are at stake, the training here focuses more on scientificity and efficiency.
The Beast-Eared Tribe are born with excellent physical talents. Their agility, strength, and endurance far exceed those of ordinary humans. Coupled with systematic training methods, those Beast-Eared girls who originally seemed weak soon demonstrated amazing combat effectiveness that was no less than that of special forces.
Although this kind of combat power may not be enough to pose a fatal threat when facing powerful races such as the Rhino People and Lizard People from another world, the combination of guns and artillery, these modern weapons of war, and the combat talents of the Beast-Eared Tribe are enough to unleash terrifying power.
While everyone was busy, Zhang Luan put on a brown hooded robe and wrapped himself in the rough cloth, looking like an ordinary traveler in this world.
After ensuring that there were no loopholes, he left the fiefdom alone and set out on the road to Arcadia City.
Along the way, Zhang Luan had mixed emotions.
Although he is good friends with the city's deputy lord, Leon, the empire has been destroyed because of his actions, and he has brought thousands of beast-eared girls into his fiefdom. All of this may cause Leon to misunderstand him or even be hostile to him.
After entering Arcadia City, Zhang Luan felt something strange at the first moment.
The number of people on the streets was much thinner than usual, and there was a sense of unease in the air.
Instead of going directly to the City Lord's Mansion, he turned into the slave market on the edge of the city.
This was once one of the busiest places in Arcadia City. Every day, countless slave traders, nobles, and adventurers gathered here to trade beast-eared slaves, and the noise was endless.
However, today's slave market appears to be particularly depressed.
The animal-eared slaves who used to be chained and stood naked on wooden platforms on the streets for people to choose and have sex with are now gone.
The dilapidated wooden cages lay there empty, some even covered with dust.
Most of the small slave shops on the street have closed, with "temporarily closed" signs hanging on the doors. Only a few are still struggling to survive, but the shops are deserted and there is not even a sign of customers.
Zhang Luan stood at the street corner, his hat brim drooping to block his vision, and he observed everything silently.
There used to be a huge open-air auction platform in the center of the market. Every time an auction was held, the place would be crowded with people watching the excitement. Slave traders would shout out their wares, nobles would wave gold coins to bid, and the beast-eared girls would tremble on the stage, their eyes filled with despair.
Today, the auction table is empty, with only a few crows perched on it, chirping softly, adding a bit of desolation.
Zhang Luan walked around the deserted slave auction house and walked along a narrow alley towards the slums.
The alley was filled with dampness and mildew. The walls on both sides were mottled and even had moss growing in some places.
Occasionally, a few skinny wild cats would run past from the corner, making low hisses.
Unlike the depressed slave market, the scene here was almost the same as before, except that without the noisy harassment of slave traders, it seemed much calmer.
The residents of the slums still live a hard life. The low houses are crowded together, the roofs are covered with tattered thatch, and the walls are haphazardly built with mud and wooden boards.
A few ragged children were playing on the street, drawing patterns on the ground with wooden sticks. Their laughter was crisp but a little bitter.
Zhang Luan followed the route he remembered, passed through several winding paths, and arrived at Lillian's home.
He raised his hand and knocked gently on the door, making a few dull sounds.
no respond.
He frowned, waited for a while, and knocked on the door again, but there was still deathly silence.
Just as Zhang Luan was about to turn around and leave, the door suddenly creaked open a small gap.
A slender, snow-white arm stretched out from the crack in the door, grabbed Zhang Luan's wrist with astonishing speed, and pulled him over.
Zhang Luan was stunned for a moment, then looked down and saw that it was indeed Lillian.
She was wearing a plain linen dress, the hem of which was a little frayed but clean.
She wore a pair of glasses that Zhang Luan had given her before, which made her look more scholarly.
Because she stayed in her room all year round and never went out, her face looked a little pale, like white porcelain that had not been nourished by the sun.
However, when she raised her head and saw Zhang Luan, a glimmer of surprise instantly flashed in her clear eyes, and a lovely blush appeared on her pale face.
"Master! You're back!" Lillian's voice was brisk and excited, with a hint of trembling, as if the emotions that had been suppressed for so long had finally found an outlet.
"Yeah." Zhang Luan nodded, glanced around, and made sure that no one else in the alley noticed this place before quickly slipping into the room and closing the door casually.
The house looked dilapidated from the outside, but as soon as Zhang Luan entered, he felt a sense of unexpected warmth.
Although the room is small, it is tidy and tidy.
The last time he came, this place was just an empty shell with thin hay on the ground and a few worn-out clothes piled in the corner.
Nowadays, there are more
Chapter 320
A bit of life breath.
The wooden bed against the wall was covered with a thick and soft cotton mattress, and a small velvet blanket on top.
The blanket was brightly colored and a little frayed at the edges, but it was soft and smooth and shimmered in the sunlight.
Zhang Luan remembered that this kind of velvet blanket was usually a luxury item used as a footrest in aristocratic homes. Unexpectedly, Lillian spread it on the bed, apparently to make herself sleep warmer and more comfortably.
In the corner of the room stood a simple wooden table, on which lay an oil lamp and a few tattered books.
Obviously, all this was thanks to the money Zhang Luan left last time.
"Master, please wait a moment!" Lillian's voice was a little shy, but she couldn't hide her excitement.
She quickly ran to the wardrobe in the corner of the room, carefully took out an exquisite cloth bag from it, and held it in both hands as if it was her most precious treasure.
The cloth bag is wrapped in a piece of light blue cotton cloth, and the edges are sewn with a few stitches with fine thread. Although simple, it reveals a sense of care.
She placed the cloth bag on the table and unwrapped it layer by layer, being very careful with every move, as if she was afraid of damaging it.
A clean and tidy school uniform emerged from the cloth bag - that was the gift Zhang Luan gave her last time.
The style of the school uniform seems out of place in this world of swords and magic. The top is a white short-sleeved shirt paired with a pair of dark blue sports trousers. It is simple but has a unique sense of freshness.
Then, she turned her back to Zhang Luan without any hesitation and grabbed the hem of her linen dress with both hands.
She exerted a little force, and the skirt slowly lifted up, revealing a pair of slender snow-white legs.
The legs are long and well-proportioned, and the skin is smooth and delicate, exuding the breath of youth.
The hem of the skirt continued to rise, revealing her perky, round and firm breasts, with the youthfulness and vitality unique to girls.
Next is the slender waist, which is so thin that it seems like it can be broken with a light pinch.
She lifted up her linen skirt completely, revealing her completely naked back. A few delicate ribs on her back were faintly visible, and the lines were as soft as a painting.
Her shoulders were narrow and delicate, and as she moved sideways, her collarbone was clearly visible. Her skin was so white that it was almost transparent, with a fragile beauty.
Just the sight of her back made Zhang Luan's thoughts drift back to the past.
He couldn't help but think of his little niece.
It was a summer afternoon, she was changing clothes at home and the door was not closed tightly.
Zhang Luan happened to pass by and took an inadvertent glance, only to see a patch of white and her slender figure.
Although he didn't see any key parts, the scene left a vague impression in his mind.
At this moment, Lillian's back seemed to complete the blurry picture, even clearer and more vivid than in memory.
Her figure is petite but well-proportioned, and every inch of her skin exudes the purity and beauty of a girl.
Chapter 327 Familiar Figure
Lillian seemed to be completely unconcerned with Zhang Luan's gaze. She picked up a pair of pink cotton panties from next to her school uniform.
